Only days after being called a quitter on National TV by Michael Irvin, Giants Running Back Tiki Barber fired back. Not only did he take the moment to take a shot at Irvin, but he took a shot at a few others who have talked negatively about his retirement plans.

"I will call them 'idiots' because they have neither spoken to me nor any one of my teammates or any of my coaches, yet all they do is criticize me for being a distraction with this retirement thing...

That includes New York Daily News columnist Gary Myers, that includes Tom Jackson on ESPN, that includes the ultimate character guy, facetiously speaking, of course, Michael Irvin (of ESPN), please get a clue how to be a journalist.
Don't make blanket assumptions about it (retirement). And obviously, as was evidence (Monday) night, I am a huge distraction to the New York Giants." Tiki said
